”Før de lærer at elske, lærer de homoseksuelle at lyve!” – Michel Marc BouchardHvornår går det op for en, at man er bøsse? Det kan godt være, at omverdenen kan se det, men hvis man ikke selv kan se det? Eller indrømme det? ”Bøsse!” er Ludovic Piétus personlige fortælling om, hvordan han måtte erkende overfor sig selv og sin forlovede, Margot, at han er bøsse. Bogen er smukt illustreret af Jika.”Bøsse!” er oversat af forpersonen for Copenhagen Pride, Lars Oskan-Henriksen.

This publication was initiated during a Type Design brief at Zurich University of the Arts. Students were tasked to select an typeface published before 1999, to which they had a strong emotional connection, either positive or negative. Parallel to articulating personal emotions, students also collected information about the designer, type foundry, historical context and technology of production that led to the creation of the typeface. Then they proposed a contemporary redesign or revival. The design methodology was flexible, allowing for a range of approaches: from a classic revival in which the designers used their skills to digitize a typeface that was unavailable (or available in poor quality only), to a different design interpretation of the typeface. It was also possible to use the historical typeface as a mere formal or conceptual inspiration for a new creation. In different ways, then, the students investigated the definition, role and limitation of a revival typeface today.Their research and design processes are reflected in the texts which the students present in this publication, along with specimen pages for their typeface. The texts grew out of a two-weeks writing class at Zurich University of the Arts called Designers as Writers. Considering a broad range of writing practices pursued by designers long before (and also while), academic thesis writing took hold at art schools, from Jan Tschichold, Anna Simons and Hildegard Korger to Adrian Frutiger and Otl Aicher, from Hans-Rudolf Lutz and Fiona Ross to Zuzana Licko, Dexter Sinister, Alphabettes and more, the students familiarized themselves with (various combinations of) four basic approaches to writing: autobiographical, programmatic, historiographical and theoretical. These approaches informed daily writing exercises and staged impromptu readings in the evening, and eventually they also informed, to various degrees, the texts about the typefaces.

Das Buch behandelt Fragen internationaler Währungs- und Finanzbeziehungen, wobei auch die Rolle der Entwicklungsländer im internationalen Kapitalverkehr in verschiedenen Kapiteln eingehend thematisiert wird. Es zeigt, dass sich internationale Kapital- und Finanzmärkte dynamisch entwickeln, auf weltpolitische Ereignisse reagieren und diese zugleich mitprägen. Auf modelltheoretische Erklärungen wird zugunsten einer eher exemplarischen Darstellungsweise verzichtet. Auf diese Weise ergänzt und erweitert das Buch den theoretischen Lehrstoff einschlägiger Standardlehrbücher zur Geld- und Währungstheorie durch praxisbezogene Überlegungen und Beispiele. Damit eignet es sich nicht nur als erste Orientierung und Einführung in das komplexe Themengebiet, sondern auch als Handbuch und Nachschlagewerk.

Anziehend und abstoßend zugleich ist Francis Bacons Bildnis seines ersten Lebenspartners Peter Lacy. Das monumentale "Portrait" aus dem Jahr 1962 war lange Zeit vor der Öffentlichkeit verborgen. Kurz nach seiner Entstehung erwarb es der italienische Regisseur Michelangelo Antonioni und es blieb jahrzehntelang in Privatbesitz. Dabei entpuppt es sich als ein Schlüsselwerk, das an einem Wendepunkt entstand. Markus Rath führt erstmals diese Stränge zusammen und bettet das Gemälde in Bacons Bildwelt ein. Der englische Maler bekennt sich darin zu einer biografisch orientierten Gegenständlichkeit, konzentriert sein kompositorisches Schema auf den bühnenartigen Innenraum und forciert den Kontrast zwischen flächigem Grund und farbgesättigter Figur - wegweisende kompositorische Verfahren, die sein Spätwerk entscheidend prägen sollten.

Three years after "Shape Grammars" (2020), Jannis Maroscheck returns with an updated look on machine-generated graphics and the core motif of mass produced ideas: "Latent Figures." Looking for forms of expression hidden between ancient runes and y2k logos, medieval monograms and clip art illustrations, hieroglyphs and stock icons, Maroscheck developed AI-based systems to merge the shared visual vocabulary designed by humans across eras, continents and cultures. The underlying process simulates human inspiration, but it is an analytical, objective process. The systems consider form as pure form. They draw no reference to real-world things. In doing so, they have a stubborn intensity to them, that seems less like human creativity and more like a strange, unstoppable force of nature.The resulting catalog is a dive into the inner workings of an AI that has seen nothing but graphic shapes and symbols. With this sort-of-dictionary, Maroscheck creates a visual language that blends pragmatic graphic design aesthetics with elusive imagery. A collection of shapes that often approximate something we know or can understand, but their meaning doesn't quite want to resolve, they revolve around themselves, somewhere between meaning and nonsense. Offering a space to project ones own imagination and come across new ideas. "When I think about it, something like a graphic form, black and white, defined only by its outline, feels quite limited in what it can express, what it can communicate. Then I look at it, like a blob of ink, continuously reshaping itself, in flux, automatic and open in all directions." Jannis Maroscheck

I et hus bor en dreng, der mest holder sig for sig selv. Han kan faktisk ikke længere huske, hvad han hedder, for det er længe siden, at nogen har sagt hans navn.Drengen bor alene i et lille hus. Måske boede der også engang en dame, der kaldte ham Pølse, men drengen kan ikke helt huske det. Og han kan heller ikke huske, om han egentlig har et rigtigt navn - for der er aldrig nogen, der taler til og siger hans navn.Men en dag får han et brev fra skolen - og drengen må møde op og lære matematik og sidde stille i timerne. Heldigvis møder han også Kirsten, som ikke rigtig kan forstå, at han ikke har et navn. Måske kan de sammen finde et passende navn til ham?Stemningsfuld højtlæsning for 6-10-årige.Det er en virkelig fin og rørende bog med masser af ting at snakke om og tænke over - fx ensomhed, kønsidentitet og fravær af ansvarlige voksne. De få voksne i bogen er ret karikerede og forfærdelige. Læreren er træt af børn og mobber Kirsten med, at hun ikke kan stave, drengen bor alene uden voksne, og det antydes, at Kirsten er blevet slået derhjemme.Selvom bogen beskriver flere alvorlige emner, er den hverken sentimental eller tung. Bogen kan varmt anbefales til alle biblioteker.Lektørudtalelsen

Hvorfor banker man under bordet? Hvorfor bringer en firkløver held og hvorfor må man ikke gå under en stige? Skal man tro på det eller ej?Overtro er når man tror på noget, der ikke kan forklares.

Der er en indholdsfortegnelse, et forord og et stikordsregister.Til børn fra 7 år.

Dior redefined what fashion looked like in the post-war age and demanded glamour, femininity and excess to be the order of the day. His vision for seriously structured corsets tapering to dramatically full skirts with pleats for days earned the title 'The New Look', and it really was.

Die 1534 vollständig erschienene Lutherbibel veränderte die Weltgeschichte nachhaltig. Sie machte die Bibel in der Volkssprache erstmals für Laien zugänglich und markierte damit eine Zäsur in der Geschichte des Christentums mit der Herausbildung des "allgemeinen Priestertums der Gläubigen" und die Herausbildung des Protestantismus. In diesem mit großer Sorgfalt hergestellten zweibändigen Nachdruck präsentiert TASCHEN sowohl das Alte als auch das Neue Testament in Luthers bahnbrechender Übersetzung. Auf der Grundlage des kostbaren Originals der Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek, das heute zum UNESCO-Weltdokumentenerbe zählt, offenbart der Band die vielschichtige Pracht dieser Bibel, mit ihrem akkuraten Schriftbild, ihren kunstvollen Initialen und den vorzüglichen farbigen Holzschnitten aus der Werkstatt Lucas Cranachs des Älteren . Stephan Füssel, Buchwissenschaftler der Johannes-Gutenberg-Universität zu Mainz, bereichert diese Publikation durch detaillierte Beschreibungen der Illustrationen sowie einer Einleitung, die Luthers Leben und die weltbewegende Bedeutung dieser Bibel herausarbeitet.

'Exquisite... intelligent, illuminating, mischievous ... delightful The TimesThe acclaimed author of Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts introduces us to the extraordinary keepers and companions of medieval manuscripts over a thousand years of historyThe illuminated manuscripts of the Middle Ages are among the greatest works of European art and literature. We are dazzled by them and recognize their crucial role in the transmission of knowledge. But we generally think much less about the countless men and women who made, collected and preserved them through the centuries, and to whom they owe their existence.This entrancing book describes some of the extraordinary people who have spent their lives among illuminated manuscripts over the last thousand years. A monk in Normandy, a prince of France, a Florentine bookseller, an English antiquary, a rabbi from central Europe, a French priest, a Keeper at the British Museum, a Greek forger, a German polymath, a British connoisseur and the woman who created the most spectacular library in America - all of them were participants in what Christopher de Hamel calls the Manuscripts Club.This exhilarating fraternity, and the fellow enthusiasts who come with it, throw new light on how manuscripts have survived and been used by very different kinds of people in many different circumstances. Christopher de Hamel's unexpected connections and discoveries reveal a passion which crosses the boundaries of time. We understand the manuscripts themselves better by knowing who their keepers and companions have been.In 1850 (or thereabouts) John Ruskin bought his first manuscript 'at a bookseller's in a back alley'. This was his reaction: 'The new worlds which every leaf of this book opened to me, and the joy I had in counting their letters and unravelling their arabesques as if they had all been of beaten gold - as many of them were - cannot be told.' The members of de Hamel's club share many such wonders, which he brings to us with scholarship, style, and a lifetime's experience.

«A pioneering first in the English language. This is a wonderfully subtle, multifaceted study of the image in the work of one of Portugal¿s greatest writers. Admirable for its depth of analysis and breadth of coverage, this is a real gift for new learners of Portuguese and established scholars alike.»(Hilary Owen, University of Oxford)«The present collection of essays, produced by some of the best scholars who have dealt with Lídia Jorge¿s work, should be of great help to English readers not familiar with the original language of a compelling, engaging writer deeply concerned with the world she lives in and the future of us all.»(Onésimo Teotónio Almeida, Brown University)As Aristotle has written, the image is at the core of the soul¿s language. Indeed, given its significant potential and capacity for revelation ¿ heightened in a society dominated by visual culture ¿ the image would seem to be key to reflecting, critically and creatively, on humanity and on history itself. Lídia Jorge has asserted several times that her writing has always taken as its starting point a powerful and inspiring image, which concentrates the various meanings and reflections that she intends to explore while also dispersing these across her texts. Radiating from the initial image, Jorge manages to develop a gaze which is simultaneously critical, thorough and informative. Scholars point out that whenever language opens to universal images and mythologies capable of conveying visions of clarity, the subversive power of beauty is re-asserted. This power is confirmed and examined from different points of view and theories in this volume.

Devotion, understood as pure, all-encompassing love that only wants to give without asking for anything in return, is one of the founding values of Dolce & Gabbana.At Dolce & Gabbana the concept of “devotion” is part of the very idea of work: it is as if something mystical is hidden behind every sketch, embroidery, and stitch. The fashion house’s most iconic bag is intentionally called Devotion precisely to pay homage to this feeling. A strongly sacred component accompanies many of the brand’s sartorial creations, accessories, and jewelry, which draw on the evocations of Sicilian popular culture mixed with a high degree of religiosity. And while the sacred heart, the saints, the Madonna, the rosary, and the cross are some of the most recurrent themes and elements in the collections, processions, funerals, masses, and the figures of bishops, popes, and religious devotees continue to represent a constant source of inspiration. In addition to the advertising campaigns, the most iconic images of the collections, and numerous shots portraying religious holidays in Sicily, the book will be enriched with many photos taken specifically for this publication by important Italian photographers under the direct guidance of Domenico Dolce on the set.
